D Bar X Lighting
chandeliers used in the 2012 Movie "Joyful
Noise"
Yes, the wagon wheel
chandeliers you see in the restaurant in "Joyful Noise" were
made by Pat Fillman of D Bar X Lighting! Gospel Truth Pictures
contacted us in December 2010 as the set was being created for
the movie. They purchased 17
WW027-24/3-S
24-inch wagon wheel chandeliers and 3
WW027-42/5-S
42-inch wagon wheel chandeliers.
The movie stars Dolly Parton,
Queen Latifah, Keke Palmer, and Kris Kristofferson and the wagon
wheel chandeliers are clearly visible in many of the restaurant
scenes.

D Bar X Lighting
Wall Sconces used in the 2011 Super Bowl 45
Budweiser Commercial
The Budweiser commercial for
the 2011 Superbowl XLV featured the world-famous Budweiser
Clydesdales and an old-west bar scene. But did you notice the
lighting in the saloon? Maybe not, but folks in White Pine
County, Nevada were watching for lights made by local craftsman
Pat Fillman of D Bar X Lighting and Horns-A-Plenty Antler Art.
Fillman got a call from the
Budweiser commercial production company in November. “The guy
asked me if they could have 4 wagon wheel chandeliers and 8
lantern wall sconces by the next Thursday,” Fillman recalls.
“You bet, no problem! I said and I dropped everything I was
doing to get the order done and shipped it by Monday. You don’t
often get a chance to do something really big like this.”
Unfortunately the wagon wheel
chandeliers were never shown in the commercial, but several of
the sconces were visible on the walls.

| D Bar X Lighting Chandelier
Seen In the 2009 "Hannah Montana Movie"
PRESS RELEASE: RELEASE DATE
4/13/2009
LOCALLY MADE LIGHT IN HANNAH
MONTANA MOVIE
A wagon wheel chandelier
hand-crafted near Ely, Nevada appears in a key scene in the new
“Hannah Montana Movie” box-office smash released
April 13, 2009.
“Even though the light is only
shown for about 2.3 seconds, it’s in a big scene with Billy Ray
Cyrus,” Spring Valley resident Pat Fillman says. “He breaks an
Elvis plate on it.”
Fillman and his wife Kristi are
the owners of D Bar X Lighting and Horns-A-Plenty Antler Art.
Pat has been making hand-crafted antler and wagon wheel lighting
and other home accessories for more than 16 years. With the
exception of 5 years in Phoenix, their business has been based
in White Pine County.
“We got a call from Mon Tan
Productions in Franklin, Tennessee while the movie was in
production last year,” Fillman says. “We couldn’t wait till it
was released and we drove to Salt Lake to see it over the
weekend.
“Usually the chandeliers aren’t in
most of the shots because they are up at the ceiling, but in
this scene Billy Ray Cyrus stumbles into his mom’s shelves with
her famous people plate collection. He catches the plate of
Elvis before it hit the floor, stands up, puts his hand in the
air and says “I got it” and accidentally
breaks the plate on our chandelier.”
This internet-based business at
www.horns-a-plenty.com ships their products to
customers world-wide and their items have been purchased for use
in a number of TV shows, movies and restaurants. TV and movie
credits include: “Soul Men” (lantern lights), “True Blood”
(wagon wheel chandeliers), ABC’s “Extreme Makeover: Home
Edition” (episode 303, wagon wheel chandelier), “Trick My Truck”
("Rawhide" stagecoach show, Season 4, Episode 4, lanterns), and now the “Hannah Montana Movie.”

| D Bar X
Lighting Wall Sconces seen on CMT's "Trick My Truck" - Season 4, Episode 4 -
David Goad's Rawhide - 2009 |
| Two hand-crafted custom
lantern wall sconces from D Bar X Lighting were part of CMT's "Trick My
Truck" season 4, episode 4 - "Rawhide" in 2009.
The lantern wall sconces were mounted in the
sleeper section of the truck along with some wooden barrels, a cash box, and
other rustic items to give the space a real Old West feel but with modern
convenience.
"Driving a truck is the only career David
Goad has ever wanted. He considers it his job to help keep America's economy
rolling. David's other passion is family. He grew up without a father, and
he is constantly juggling his life on the road with his life at home. His
one worry is that he's not being a good enough father to his children. Don't
miss this heartwarming episode of Trick My Truck as David's kids contact the
boys and get them to turn David's worn-out Kenworth into a rolling tribute
to America's Old West."

| D Bar X
Lighting Chandelier Shown On ABC's "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" - Oct.
2005 |

%20copy.gif)
All of us at D Bar X Lighting are happy to have been part of ABC's
"Extreme Makeover: Home Edition." (Sundays 8/7c). One of our handcrafted wagon
wheel chandeliers now graces the new Barrett Family home in Peyton,
Colorado (Episode 303).
Click here
to go to the show's website for more details. Here are some photos...
Billy Jack and Anne have always had a knack for challenges - it used to be
for handling disobedient horses when they were working in the equestrian
business as real life "horse whisperers." Now it's raising and adopting
children deemed "unmanageable" and "un-adoptable" according to the Colorado
Department of Human Services which claims that these are the children no one
wants.
Dusty (15), Daphne (14), AJ (13), and Jennifer (14) were four kids who had
gone from one foster home to another and suffered mental and behavioral
problems stemming from abuse. No one could handle them - these children were
out of control. But Anne and Billy Jack really thought they could work with
these kids, as they had with hundreds of horses in the past. They became
mentors and, soon after, parents. With unending amounts of love, patience
and discipline, Dusty, Daphne, AJ and Jennifer have become healthy and
productive members of the Barrett family.
But now with growing teenagers, in addition to the Barretts' two biological
kids, Rebecca (13) and Clara (11), the four-bedroom farmhouse with only one
and a half bathrooms is getting too tight for eight people. In addition,
Anne quit her job to home-school the four adopted children, as each of them
is behind academically and emotionally. Billy Jack and Anne would like to
take in more kids in need, but can't because of space and the Colorado law
which states that the household has reached the limit for the number of
children allowed per bedroom.
With the help of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and their team of
contractors, the Barrett family will now have a bigger house that all their
children can enjoy, as well as the opportunity to adopt more kids who never
really had a home.

The World's Largest Antler
Chandelier - 10-ft. x 12-ft. Natural Deer & Elk Antler
Chandelier - 2005 |
 |
Pat Fillman of Horns-A-Plenty Antler
Art has become known as the "monster" antler chandelier specialist! This antler chandelier is 10-feet in diameter, 12-feet tall and features
four cascading tiers lined with 67 lights. We estimate that there are more
than 600 natural deer and elk antlers in the chandelier. The 850-lb. light was
installed in 2005 in a 19,000 square-foot, four-story log home near Mammoth, California.
The chandelier was too large to be
transported in one piece, so Pat constructed it in three separate sections at
the Horns-A-Plenty workshop in eastern Nevada. Then he transported it to the
home in California and assembled it on-site. He designed a custom heavy steel
bracket to hang the chandelier from the 32-ft. ceiling. Then he used special
hoists, rigging and scaffolding to raise the light to the perfect level.
The owner commented that he'd
requested bids from several antler art companies but Horns-A-Plenty was "the
only one that would even consider building a chandelier that size."
Note:
Larger chandeliers are possible, but would have to be built on-site. Please call
for a quote.
